    Recommend a Bluetooth Mouse

    Would like to get a bluetooth mouse in order to cut one more wire from my setup. I've been using a wireless mouse for the last couple of years with no real issues. In the past I've always tended to buy Microsoft mouses because they're well constructed, but I feel like they're a little over-priced.

    I'm using a mac, but I understand that the Apple MightMouse is poorly constructed. Basically, I don't mind who makes it as long as it's well made, reliable, has good battery life and is a reasonable price. I'm going to be using it for general purposes (not games) so I only need two buttons and a scroll wheel; I would like a full-sized mouse, rather than one of those mini ones.

    Recommend away!

    Mighty Mouse is a very good mouse.

    People slate it because of the rollerball clogging with dirt after a while.

    There is a simple solution to this, don't use it with dirty hands!

    I have had no problems with one at all in fact I upgraded fron the previous apple wireless mouse as I think they are very comfortable. Can be used with one or two batteries and has a nice feel to it and never loses connection.

        OK, thanks for the reassurance regarding the MM. I'll officially consider it an option now.

        Anyone able to recommend other mice?

          or don't have skin.


          I think the MM is great, but it clogs up too easy. Also right clicking is annoying as you have to make sure your left finger is no where near the pad otherwise it senses your finger is there and left clicks. Plus the battery life is fairly poor (though I use rechargeables now).

          I've modded my MM so it's easier to get apart to clean the roller ball. Usually have to every 4-6 months.

            This is the main reason I won't get a MM. I can't get used to removing my left click finger from the mouse to be able to use right click...it's so stupid.

              I know, but try explaining it to the Apple fanboys on MacRumours and they'll tell you that you shouldn't use right click as the Apple way is ctrl key mouse click.

                Anyone able to recommend a good PC mouse (i.e. not MM)? Would like to have something to compare, I'm not sold on a MM, partly because I don't want to feel like fashion/apple victim.
